Natural Balance Fat Dogs Chicken & Salmon Formula Low Calorie Dry Dog Food is hot extruded (which means it's processed under extreme heat and pressure) and made with feed grade ingredients, which are unfit for human consumption. It contains 28 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 5 anti-nutrients including Garbanzo Beans, Peas, and Pea Fiber (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 4 other sketchy ingredients, including Natural Flavor and Brewers Dried Yeast.
